Kitkat Kernels for All (well most!)

[d33]

I'm using kernel_t_AP6210_SD_V2.img and there is no audio using a928 kitkat build on my MK908ii. I'll flash 2.03 and 2.04 (no wifi or bt on these though) and see if those help the situation any and report back.

EDIT: It appears I got it working after I adjusted the audio down and back up again. HD kernel however has terrible visual artifacts and Settings crashes when I select HDMI from the list and continues to have no sound.

EDIT2: It seems getting sound to work is mixed with this combo. I flashed back from HD to SD and now I can't get sound to work for the life of me.

Don't worry about wifi/BT on v2.04 I built it with J22 wifi params as Max One was testing and I wanted to prove this worked.


Focus on 2.04 - does it produce sound? Is all working? If it is I'll build a full series to replace v2.00

2.04 seems to be working fine. However on initial flash of just the kernel it did kill sound. I wiped /data and now it works and plays 720p video through the rockchip video player just fine. I'll poke around and see if it's helped at all with the visual artifacts at all.

EDIT: I don't seem to find any visual artifacts in this version on the UI if there are then it's minor. The resolution selection works perfectly and my TV reports correct switching from 720 to 1080 including between 50hz and 60hz refresh rates. Also I did all testing with RK video player playing the same 720p video file in the lower left corner. (love that feature of the RK video player btw wish more had it as I can watch while I check my email and browse)

A tv stick. And yes BT works. Pairing with my n7100 Samrtphone works, sending a picture via bt works. Later i will try to pair it with my bt headphones. Need to charge it first.

Exactly the same as this 1 here http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.p...-dan-Vsync-Fix

My bt-headphone also works nice. Everything runs fine for now.

Sounds good then.

I'll build out the series and try to get MK7601U added to the party.

hello d33, I tested last night using the new kernel and found it to give way to much hdmi flickering and audio cut outs in XBMC. Using Finless KK 2.0 has worked the best so far with mine which is a t428 original.

Don't know if that helps at all just thought I would mention it.

Please state version you tested.

108p

D33,

if you build a working wifi/bt 1080P (cpu:1.6Ghz-ram:600) J22 Kernel I can try this evening.
720p mostly works fine it's the 1080 one I'm looking for.

I see the same black screen but frankly its not really a problem.

Sound i am hear brief clicking 3 or 4 times in 30 min.

I dont know whats causing my problem. Sometimes when i flash a new oc kernel my sound is gone. Even when flash back to your kernel still no sound. Really weird. Dee later i will send u my DMESG. U should look at it


Edit: lol now is everything working

Flashed kernel_AP6210-J22_SD_v204_cpu1800h_gpustock_ddrstock.img = no sound
back to kernel_AP6210-J22_SD_v204.img = still no sound.

After that, then back to kernel_t_AP6210-J22_SD-BT.img = sound is back
and then at last
back to the kernel of the first sentence kernel_AP6210-J22_SD_v204_cpu1800h_gpustock_ddrstock.

Surprise surprise sound is working this time.
Really weird.

DMESG just records the boot process - I doubt it will be a great help.

So let's get the ball rolling tonight.

Can anyone test these kernels. They are configured for 't' speed. One is for AP6210 J22 (SD), the other MT7601 (HD). Please test them regardless of your wifi. I've also uploaded a non-J22 AP6210 HD for test

Please test:

1. Wifi (if you are MT7601 user I need DMESG as ROM doesn't support yet)
2. Audio
3. Video
4. Screen zoom

[edit] 20:18 GMT - test kernels re-uploaded due to naming error!

Hi D33,

and many thanks for all the impressive work already achieved.

I am trying to install a Logitech C525 webcam on a MK908II (I suppose the chip is a RK3188T as I bought it recently from Geeksbuying). Do you know if any of your kernel could support it ?

I have already tried a few FW and most of them do not work.
The list is in another topic:

http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?7027-MK908II-Hybrid-Firmware-(HFW)-debloted-rooted-stock-firmware-by-lewy20041&p=157293&viewfull=1#post157293

Here is the result of my tests. I can boot with the following FW (but no cam):
- Tronsmart Android 4.4 Beta Firmware for AP6210 device
- Tronsmart mk908ii finless 1.5a
- Update mk908II 205j2105_1220 (from VonDroid.com)
- Tronsmart mk908ii update (from VonDroid.com also)
- Kasty Tronsmart mk908II cx919 qx2 442 20131225 rooted4

I cannot boot (black screen) with the following FW:
- Update mk908 101j2102
- Tronsmart mk908 new stock firmware 0802 update
- MK908II HFW 2.0.2 1080p (the one from this thread)
- MK908II HFW 2.0.3 720p 1080p (also another one from this thread)
- Tronsmart mk908 android 4.2 stock rom official np
[...]
In addition, I have tested tonight:
- Finless 2.0 for A928 (kernel 1080p)
- Finless 1.6a for CX919 (default settings ==> 720p)

For both: boot is ok, but cam is not working. Always the same symptom: when I start the Camera app it stops suddenly (with or without error message).
Note that on Finless 1.6a the screen was blinking.
[...]
I tried the Finless 2.0 for CX919 from your link with the kernel T AP6210 HD from d33.
The device can boot but no cam, as usual.

Thanks for your support .

My kernels support cameras that have UVC support. However, cameras are not directly supported in the beta kitkat ROM that Bob is working with. He did what he could with the A928 ROM but apparently it still has problems.

We are hoping to get a newer set of, hopefully not-beta, sources sometime. Until then camera support is not in Rockchip KK.

Nobody?
